Oh Peony, How I Love Thee...




Peonies are some of my favorite flowers along with Gerber Daises and Hydrangeas. I had the exact same shade in my bridal bouquet. Too bad you don't see them growing in the south like you do up north. This picture is from my sister-in-law's back yard, actually this is what you see when you look out of her kitchen window. I saw these within the first five minutes of being in her house and I fell in LOVE!!


Something else I LOVE about the north are the basements. I would actually consider moving north if I could have a basement, I hate cold weather but I think I may be able to cope if I had a basement. There are just so many uses for basements as well as lots or storage space!!


Question, can peonies be grown successfully in Florida? Anyone out there?

Chilly Bone


Maggie's favorite toy!! She loves it and it is one toy she can't destroy. You don't know how important those two things are, she plays with it for hours and it is indestructible. Aunt Leanne and Uncle Drew gave it to her for Christmas and it is still in one piece. Maggie loves the texture of fabric toys but usually they are all destroyed in a week or less. One toy only made it a couple of hours in our house. Needless to say we have saved on toy expenses since this came into our lives. THANK YOU, Leanne and Drew!!
Test!
